Place the sesame seeds in a small frying pan over medium heat; cook, shaking the pan frequently, until the seeds are lightly browned, 3-4 minutes. Immediately remove from the pan to cool.

Remove and discard the ends of the long beans. Cut diagonally into 2" pieces.

Just before serving, pour the dressing over the beans and toss to coat. Garnish with black sesame seeds and chopped jalapeno.
